    Hello all!
    I havent posted in a while as things have been going along very much the same as usual.
    The weather is finally fine enough to get some gardening done for more than a couple of hours so I have been busy digging,composting and getting in my first early potatoes.
    Yesterday I planted 300 onion sets. Im having my lunch break now before I set to on the new brassica bed.
    I've got a turkey cooking in the oven! Sainsburys have their half price turkeys again and it will be a nice change from liver and bacon :) It'll be pie making tomorrow as I will divide the rest up to stretch it just like i do with chicken.
    It wont be long till easter! I need to stock up on chocolate for the easter egg making.

    You built a life a life and relationship on trust, loyalty and support and it looks as if he based his life on gadgets, selfishness, greed and other woman (another form of "gadget?")

    Eventually you get back what you give - you can look forward to self respect, honesty,love, loyalty, support and empathy - and that is just a start.

    What he has to look forward to is the result of lies, betrayal, selfishness and greed. I would have mentioned the lack of self respect and dignity but sounds like he would not know what those were if they bit him on the bum!


    DH found out that the computer system we got from Tesco in August last year has "died" so we took it back this morning - managed to exchange it for a Phillips one which has a 19 inch monitor, three in one printer and scanner and copier - it also has "vista" which has just come out.
    DH is delighted as there were only two left in the store and he is trying to set it up now.

    Have put a sausage casserole in the slow cooker and just have to do mashed potato later to go with it.

    moggins

    I try not to be nasty but there are a lot of us on here who "would not spit on him if he were on fire!"

    If vibes of disapproval and contempt could be felt physically he would be coming out in boils at the very least.

    I am not "ill wishing" him as I do not approve of that - but a lot of us on here hope that he gets "just what he deserves!"

    I am still seething over that comment that he made at the party!

    Me as well! I SOOOOO agree with elona and twink. My DH was so angry and upset when he read the party comment and since your initial post about you splitting up askes me every day how you are.You are a wonderful woman; strong, sparky, warm, wise and witty. You deserve better.
    Blind as you run...aware you were staring at the sun.

    And when no hope was left inside on that starry starry night.

    Rage, have you been to Parkers? We always seem to pick up decent bargains from them. I'm pretty gutted about in style myself when Home bargains as well it will be a very dark day. QUOTE]

    DH doesn't like me going to Parkers too often :o That said I have just gone through the catalogue for Spring and have decided what we are getting. Just need to get him to dig over the beds now as I would do it but....... I have told him that I am going to spend some of my private work money whilst I've still got it. One of the consultants I work for is leaving to take a job in Edinburgh (her home city) and it's her partner who's the person I type for at Keele University so I'm losing 2 of my private incomes in one go. Plus the other Consultant I type for I do it via work and as I'm not in work..... That all said I am about to start sending out reminders to non-payers before she goes and have estimated that at about £1500!!! All to be spent on the house as I don't think we'll be going to Dorset for a couple of weeks - the prices of s/c cottages are :eek: and no, before anybody suggests it, I am NOT camping. I think after serving 20 years as an adult leader in the guide movement I deserve a proper bathroom :D

    Right off to search e-bay for cottage garden seeds - stalking some red poppies for 25p!!!!
    But I'm going to say this once, and once only, Gene. Stay out of Camberwick Green :D

    Hi everyone and hugs to everyone who needs them especially Moggins

    I've not been around since friday as I've been so busy with the usual stuff, family, visiting MIL, church, baking, ebaying, cleaning, shopping etc. I hope I haven't missed anything!
    I actually made it to the Gym yesterday and I even broke out in a sweat! Well I've done all of my chores today (including helping at the church drop-in this morning) and now I'm going to start listing some items on Ebay.
    Have a good rest of the day, if you can.
